Oh shit?You don't mean the WuFlu?Also,like you need a reason to hate Corporations,HA!

Right?! Ah, WuFlu is bad, probably got it from aliexpress packages haha

Maybe Steam or Apple Arcade could be a way...? Or whatever other portals there are out there. GOG accept good India games too.

Can't have too many reasons to shit on the giants though, I need some more incentive to finally make the switch from Google to DuckDuckGo, even though the G just seems to have such a perfect search algorithm... real bummer man. Hope you find a way to take that game places elsewhere!

Oh that's cool, haven't thought of GOG, I'll have to write them. Well, Mars is on Steam and it's doing okay, luckily! Yeah I feel you, I switched to DuckDuckGo but it's okay, just gotta get used to a different algorithm. Thank you for the kind words!

*Indie games. My bad. All geographies

I always hear the iOS version always brings in the majority of the money - I noticed Mars was on the Apple store too, did you find that to be true?

That's not exactly true, but for certain periods iOS does bring more revenue. I can say that for paid games iOS is definitely better. Google is more about continued growth and algorithms so they prefer free games. iOS is more about having a game that their curators like and promote. Thanks for asking!

Same reason I hate Google! Wow!

Google fears your superior games, as should a weak, criminal company based on stolen code rightly should. Relish this power and establish your own distribution lines. Get the word out and get back in the game.

Yeah! I feel the power, thank you!

Google sux, that's all

True that. :(

@OmarShehata Just realised I probably didn't answer your question. Mars earned more on iOS overall, but it was in a short burst near launch, but the long tail is worse than on Google!

Yeah they have a submission/application thing here: https://www.gog.com/indie

Nice. :) If naught else they do have a somewhat more entertaining name too (the Duck), and apparently they won the first actions for getting included in Google Chrome too... wonder who's really behind their financing though, considering they seem more focused on integrity than revenue. Anyway good luck! And word @Yomuchan

*auctions aargh this lack of edit feature...

feel bad about this, hope you can success your passion.
